Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel is that it features a unique double portrait of Rudolph August and Anthony Ulrich, who were the ruling dukes of the principality at the time the coin was minted. This double portrait design was a departure from the traditional single-portrait design used on most coins of the time, and it symbolized the unity and cooperation between the two rulers.
